Passion: Despite their 44-year age gap, Mr Monroy insists their romance is still going strong. ‘One time we started making love from 12 noon to 12 midnight without stopping’

In a trailer for the episode, the former cruise director explains that she met her Guatemalan companion at a luncheon when he was just 19 years old.

‘Donaldo was with a friend of mine,’ she says. ‘And I can’t believe I did this, but I rushed over and gave him a kiss and said, “Where did you find this handsome man?”‘

The couple didn’t begin dating until 15 years later, when Ms Saunders’ husband passed away and she reconnected with Mr Monroy.

Fittingly, their first date was on a cruise, during which they had ‘the most wonderful seven days,’ says Ms Saunders.

‘Heavenly,’ Mr Monroy interjects.

Romantic: In the episode, Mr Monroy plans a birthday party for his girlfriend, where he proposes. She agrees to be engaged, but turns down the proposal because in her eyes, their relationship is ‘perfect as it is’

They returned from the cruise and began unpacking in Ms Saunders’ home, at which point she told him he shouldn’t stay the night.

But Mr Monroy was ‘very persuasive,’ she says, ‘So I said, “Alright, for one night!” And he hasn’t left since.’

In the clip, Ms Saunders brags about her boyfriend’s ‘beautiful’ physique. ‘It’s as beautiful as Da Vinci’s David!’ she gushes.

Likewise, Mr Monroy can’t seem to get enough of Ms Saunders, as he is seen lovingly putting his arms around her as they frolic in a swimming pool.

Unique relationship: ‘People are offended by the term cougars,’ Ms Saunders says. ‘But I think we should encourage them’

RUSH: So now people are starting to ask: "Is Cruz following in the Trump mold? Is Trump serving to show the way for other Republicans how to respond?" Well, maybe Trump is, but Cruz doesn't need to be shown. This is standard operating procedure for Cruz. […]

CALLER: This conflict, it hurts me because, well, in 1979, I was in an abusive marriage, and I had to make the choice. That was before I became a Christian and before my eyes were opened to everything. But it still kills me every time I think back to the fact that I threw away a life that God had given to me, regardless of the circumstance. […]

RUSH: There are all kinds of teachable moments. If anybody has any doubts -- and it's hard for me to believe people still do, but there may be some. If anybody has any doubts about the media no longer being the media, about the news, about being objective, this ought to show them. […]
